I am just preparing for my dialysis for today now and I have a complaint about my rib pain and my left hip joint and it makes me drag my feet while walking because of it so I just use the wheelchair in aid of my parents, sitting on it is also a struggle. I took some anti-pain medicine just to relieve some of the pain but it is of no use.
My body is very very stiff and these issues just compounded on me but I am still thankful that I could still bathe myself although it is a terrible work in itself.
My only prayer is not to break some bones or I will be in a trouble deep. While cleaning my legs and feet in the shower I used to rest my elbow on my knees because I can't lift my legs to scrub it anymore. My left elbow then slipped and I thought I will break some bones because of that because of the sharp pain.
I hope to soon get a disabled-friendly bathroom with lots of handles That I can hold on while walking in it because waling from the shower towards the door although it is just a few feet away seems like an eternity of a distance if can't manage to life your feet because of your hip joint pain.
Well despite of all these I still wanted to live because of my goals in life but it is just a 50/50 desire and the other desire is for me to rest now because it is a hard life if not expensive to manage. My parents are also suffering because of me but I will still keep on with life and wiill just find ways to search to alleviate my misery. God help me.
@cryptopie I just wanted to mention that if it is at all possible, please try to walk as much as you can without the aid of the wheelchair. If you give up on walking, your muscles will completely atrophy and your situation will get a lot worse. I know it is painful, but you must keep moving your muscles!
Also, moving your joints is the only way to help with the stiffness. I can definitely understand that it hurts a lot and I can't imagine what you are going through, but if possible, make an effort to get those joints mobile as much as you can every day! This is also important to get your blood moving around for circulation and healing.

Thank you Sir @nuthman
I understand what you mean but I am afraid that my joint pains will get worse if I exert myself. The issues are going on top of the other, weakness, stiffness, joint pains, and breathlessness just pins me down and I get terrified to get out from my bed because of that.
But I will try as soon as I can manage to alleviate my rib pain.

I wonder, is there somewhere you can go and get into a swimming pool for exercise? That way there is reduced pressure on the joints but you can still move.

There are pools but they are in some resorts and I don't want to go to them because nobody will assist me for one reason. The other is I don't want to seen in public @nuthman plus i am scared with my hip joint, one bad fall or slip of injury to it and I am in deep trouble.

Oh yeah, that would be really bad if you fell! It makes me sad that healthcare is not free in this world. I get so angry even here in America that so many people fight against universal healthcare.
People in this country seem to have the crazy belief that everyone can just easily get a job and afford the outrageous prices of healthcare. It is not possible for so many people! For you there should be some kind of government support that will give you the surgery you need, and physical therapy.
It really frustrates me to see people suffering and the government does nothing.

I am thankful that my government insurance pays for my treatment unlike before but with other needs it goes out of pocket from me. I would like to get some physical therapy but it is expensive and I have to prioritize my medicines than having it.
